| FROM
THE EDITOR... ON THE INSIDE - TODAY IS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15,
2011 |
Two
topics seem to have struck a chord… Starks’ Penn State column, and my
Opinion about teachers. Starks likely wraps up PSU with his thoughts
today while it seems mine on teachers and education, due to reader
response, are gaining momentum. More letters and comments to come. In News: Beagle Applauds Millions for Area Revitalization; and Southwest leader warns of high costs. Events: First United Methodist Church... Service of the Longest Night. Blogs: When Did the EPA Jump the Shark?; and Implementing An International IRS In The Name Of Robin Hood. For
